[The satellite is]
lost in space after going off course and
losing power over Norway. "We're seeing this as
a setback, not a failure"...
This reminds me of something from a movie.....

Needed to look up this TV series...
The 1970s science fiction comedy series, Quark, featured a space garbage truck. The show, which aired in 1978, centered around Adam Quark and his crew aboard the United Galaxy Sanitation Patrol Cruiser, an interstellar garbage scow. Their primary duty was to collect “space baggies” filled with garbage throughout the galaxy. The show parodied popular science fiction tropes of the time.

Whenever $88 million dollars is lost, it’s a failure.

Maybe overnighted to the wrong address?

I find it ironic that Bezos’ New Glenn rocket uses natural gas (mostly methane) as fuel in the first stage.

It is both a setback and a failure.

I have noticed that the "Space Community" is always dumping on Space X, which has proven reliable,
but they are always cheering for Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin which has only had one orbital flight.
As history demonstrates, exuberance leads to death.

Sounds like it ran out of gas.

Which reminds me ... I haven't been out for Mongolian grill in quite a while.
Two plates of stir fry beef with extra onions, and I'll have those satellites' homing instincts back on track in no damn time.

For some reason I keep channeling Dr. Jacob Bronowski from the old “Ascent of Man” series and pronouncing it me-thane in my head.
